Robert Parker's Wine Advocate
The 2018 Riesling Ürziger Würzgarten Auslese *** (White Capsule) is a Meursault from the Mosel and opens with an enormously deep and intense yet clear, refined and elegant bouquet of ripe stone fruits and flint stones that are intermingled with a delicate note of very fine oak. On the palate, this is a rich and juicy, very intense and voluptuous yet elegant and refined Würzgarten with great complexity, intensity and salinity. The Auslese is full-bodied, intense and powerful but also highly finessed, elegant and crystalline in its salty purity that is perfectly matched with the fine tannins from the new oak vat. This is a great Riesling in an unrivaled style, but it should be forbidden to open the 2018 before 12-15 years—you'd waste the dry best of it. Tasted at the domain in September 2020.
